Ra Uru Hu was the founder and original messenger of the Human Design System, a revolutionary synthesis of ancient wisdom and modern science. In 1987, he received an extraordinary eight-day transmission of knowledge that revealed the mechanics of life and the blueprint for human differentiation. For over 25 years, Ra dedicated himself to teaching and preserving this system, empowering individuals to live authentically and make decisions aligned with their true nature.

In the Quarter of Mutation (Gates 1-19 around the wheel), we have the theme of Purpose fulfilled through Transformation. The binary couplet here is set by the Gate of the Expression of the Self “the Creative”—of course, Yang/Yang. This is the world where anything can happen—it’s about the process of living (like the rest of the wheel is) but here it is also about the process of transformation and accepting death.
Originally the twenty-first lecture of this 22 part course. In this part Ra goes into detail of what the Faces of the Quarter of Mutation have in common and what this Quarter really represents.
